200mm 2nd Warwickshire 24th Regt. of Foot

[Richie]

Hi All,
Here is a quick heads up from 1879 Miniatures. I have decided to commit to a set of legs for my 200mm bust so making a 24th Foot 200mm full figure. I believe this is the first 200mm full figure on the market for this period. The figure represents a private of the 24th Foot post battle Rorke's Drift.
The figure comes with the choice of 2 heads and has the option to have the bayonet fitted or not to the Martini Henry.
The figure is cast in 10 grey resin parts.
I have very quickly tacked this one together to give you a quick view as the first castings have just arrived today.
The price is £65 inclusive of postage.

cheers
Richie

Hi Richie

Great bust and I forgive you adding those long things ...lol

seriously looks great nice head option as well

Agree about an opponent , the way he is looking might be a good idea to have a wounded or dead one on the base or maybe lying over a mealie bag ....

Nice one

Nice one Richie. Should do well for you. I also second Nap's suggestion for an opponent.

Hi Steve,
Thanks mate, a 200mm Zulu is food for thought.

Hi Tommi,
Thanks mate, and thanks for the help it is really appreciated.

Hi Keith,
Thanks mate, see you at Telford on Saturday if you are going.

Hi Nap,
Thanks mate, I might just make a dead Zulu for me and have him at his feet, I have just started three 200mm heads.

Hi John,
Thanks mate, glad it is tempting you. Are you going to Telford mate?

Hi Michael
Thanks mate, I will never say never to an opponent or stand alone 200mm Zulu.

cheers
Richie

Hi Richie,
That's a great looking figure, something for me to keep in mind next year maybe?

Good stuff Richie, this has turned out really well. I'm looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.

 

[Helm]

Once you have the Zulu it would be silly not to add the Giraffe as well
